Editing Unggoy combat harness

{{Status|Canon}}

[[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] has altered the Unggoy combat harness. [[Unggoy Storm]]s have had the standard rebreather replaced with a nose-placed rebreather resembling the diving apparatuses used on [[Balaho]].<ref>[http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-US/halo4guide '''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''']</ref>

 

Unggoy employed by the [[Banished]] make use of a variety of armors, some inspired by suits from the [[Harvest campaign]], some from the time of the [[Fall of Reach]], as well as new designs necessary for their unique troops.<ref>[[Halo Wars 2]]</ref><ref>[[Halo Infinite]]</ref>

In addition to its life support role, it is equipped with armor. This armor can withstand limited amounts of fire, especially from energy weapons. The [[M6D magnum]] is capable of easily cracking through the armor and is considered by some to be the standard weapon for such actions.<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''page ??''</ref> The armor piercing rounds of the [[MA5 series]] are also potent weapons against the harness. As well as defending against projectiles and [[plasma]], it prevents a limited amount of fall damage to its user, like its [[Combat harness|Sangheili counterpart]]. Despite this, most variants are vastly inferior to the other types of armor adorned and used by the Covenant, no doubt due to the costs required to produce the suits for the extremely large population of Unggoy soldiers. Some variants are also equipped with helmets, [[active camouflage]], a methane-filled breathing apparatus, methane fueled thrusters, and even [[energy shielding]].<ref name="H4">'''[[Halo 4]]'''</ref><ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref>

'''Curl tank''': This variant of harness was used by [[Unggoy Minor]]s, [[Unggoy Major]]s, and [[Special Operations Unggoy]]s.

'''Slim-stock tank''': The Heavies of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant wear a helmet with full-face protective rebreathers, enhanced optical sensors with optics articulators, and ultra-dense battle harnesses that has a slim-stock tank with analog eye sockets of Unggoy predators. The harness is issued in orange, blue, silver, green, and magenta.<ref name="h4guide">[[Halo 4 Interactive Guide#Enemies|'''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''' ''- Enemies: Covenant - Grunt Heavy'']]</ref> The combat harness also allows for the Heavies to use the methane tank as a makeshift thruster pack, allowing for easy access in various terrains.{{Ref/Reuse|H4}}{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}

'''Wide-stack methane supply harness''': The [[Unggoy Ranger]] harness has a wide-stack methane supply tank with an EVA thruster pack on it, this allows the user to freely navigate low-to-zero gravity environments. The helmet has a twin-filter rebreather so the wearer does not suffocate in the harsh environments.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}

There are two versions of the Unggoy ranger suit, both of which cover the entire Unggoy body and have hock-mitigators on the feet. The version with a more smooth surface is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, low-to-zero gravity, and other rigors found in the vacuum of space. The second version has more layers.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}

'''Unggoy Storm harness''': In a effort to increase field of view, the Unggoy Storm helmet includes a nose-placed rebreather somewhat resembling the diving apparatuses used on the Unggoy homeworld of [[Balaho]]. The harness has a pressurized methane tank, with a filter actuator to help keep the tank working.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}

The harness is issued in orange, blue, violet, green, yellow, and red. The harness also allows for the Unggoy to use the methane tank as a makeshift thruster pack, allowing for easy access in various terrains.{{Ref/Reuse|H4}}{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}}

'''Deacon outfit''': [[Deacon]]s wear tunics and pointed helmets mixed with the standard point tank harness.

*In ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' the methane mask can be knocked off. However the Grunt will continue fighting despite its sudden lack of a methane source.
